Making the Large Hadron Collider and its experiments work is a top priority for Fermilab and the global particle physics community. The CMS Center serves as a home base for all CMS experimenters at Fermilab. The center provides a central focus for all CMS efforts at the lab, including Fermilab's Remote Operations Center and the LHC Physics Center in Wilson Hall.

The mission of the CMS Center is to:

provide overall coordination and management of the Fermilab contributions to CMS and the resources invested in CMS

ensure that Fermilab and U.S. CMS enables U.S. physicists to fully and actively participate in the science made available at the LHC
